before the world became so fast paced and dynamic

From the dry Kalahari Sands
regions of Zimbabwe and Zambia, the Zimbabwean Teak (Baikiaea
plurijuga) tree provides a sustainable raw material custom-made
for the manufacture of outdoor decking and interior flooring.

Considered to be one of the hardest
(12850N@ 12% Moisture Content) and densest (800-1000kg/M3)
timbers, Zimbabwean Teak, with it’s characteristic
reddish brown heartwood and pale pinkish brown sapwood,
is an extremely stable timber providing a fine and even-grained
texture.

The mist-shrouded Eastern Highlands
of Zimbabwe is the source of our Zimbabwean Saligna
decking timber. Cut from slow-grown, mature stands,
this Eucalyptus species has a density and stability
seldom found in plantation-grown trees. Carefully cut,
kiln-dried and graded prior to machining, Underfoot’s
Zimbabwean Teak and Saligna decking is manufactured
by McDonald Timber Industries (Pvt) Ltd in Zimbabwe
and distributed by Underfoot Wooden Flooring
in Southern Africa.

Zimbabwean Teak and
Saligna decking is available in the following dimensions:

Don't Screw Up Your Deck
We spend thousands on beautiful wood for our decks and then screw the boards in place.

Who wants the focus of their deck to be unsightly screws?
Finally, there is a product which allows the wood to be the focus of your deck and not the screws.

EasyClip is the future of wooden decking, with it's registered design allowing for a smooth, screw-free deck surface.

Even though the EasyCLIP once installed, will only be exposed to harsh weather conditions through a small gap of 6mm, we carefully chose a material that will be durable in any condition, to ensure you get the best quality possible.

In order to protect the EasyCLIP from the growing danger of UV Rays, we chose the colour black not only because it decreases it's visibility but also because black is the most stable colour in the presence of UV light. The EasyCLIP is made from heavy duty UV resistant Polypropolene and can withstand temperatures from -40 degrees to +60 degrees celsius. We also used UV stabilizers to further increase the lifespan of the EasyCLIP.

Because we know that the sun is not the only danger your deck might face we made sure that the EasyCLIP is impervious to water, salts, insects, chemicals and most fuel and oil types. Further more the EasyCLIP is meticulously designed to withstand high pressure and bending stresses that might occur when timber shrink or expand.

EasyCLIP were designed with the deck builder in mind. We know by keeping them happy we must provide them with a product that will not only be easy and fast to work with but also of great quality and cost effective.
The end result is a screw-free, great looking and easy maintanable deck that will leave their customers very impressed and satisfied. In return it will lead to more references and more jobs for the deck builder.

The EasyCLIP is a locally manufactured product and has a 25 year warranty.

There are three main products in the Hickson Décor
range of brush applied finishes that have been developed
for both softwood and hardwood, interior and exterior
applications.

Hickson Décor
Wood Stain

Hickson Décor
Breather Paint

Hickson Décor
Hardwood Finish

All are high build, microporous, coat-on- coat products
– complete finishes from a single can. They eliminate
the need for a separate primer or undercoat, although
they are fully compatible with Hickson Predec basecoats
and primer, if required.

Each product in the
range has a high solids content compared with alternative
wood finishes, which not only provides a superior spreading
capacity but also gives a greater film thickness and
increased durability of the coating.

Moisture and ultra-violet
light are the primary agents that can dramatically shorten
the life of decorative coatings for timber and subsequently
cause high maintenance costs. They can cause deterioration
of the substrate leading to blistering, cracking, peeling
and flaking of the decorative finish.

The Hickson range of
microporous wood finishes has been specially formulate
to overcome these problems and has been increasingly
specified by architects and used by private contractors,
local authorities and housing associations since its
introduction into S.A. in 1993. The finishes have a
highly flexible structure that compensates for movement
of the wood. Their microporous formulation allows the
timber to breath and any excess moisture to escape as
a vapour through the coating, whilst the exterior surface
remains highly water repellant.
